Pregnant Panhandling Mom Caught Driving Off In A Mercedes

by Austin Petersen

A woman in San Diego was caught begging for money before she reportedly drove off in a Mercedes Benz. The woman is pregnant and standing out panhandling with a little boy she brings with her. An eyewitness saw her laughing and counting her money in the car, until she saw the person watching her whereby the pregnant woman picked up an enormous rock and tried to throw it at the woman who was photographing her.

Apparently lots of people had been giving the woman money, despite the fact that she doesn’t appear to be in any real financial distress. The woman who took the photos of the panhandler said, “I’m going to take these photos so I can show my friends so they don’t give them their money. They don’t need it. They are driving a Benz.”

When ABC10 looked up the panhandler at her address, they found her address at a $2400 a month apartment. All of the attention on the woman may have caused her to move, as the local news agency reported that she had taken her family and changed addresses.
